Martin: What do you do at powerlink? Please dont tell me you're running on the wheel.

I run on the wheel :(

Lol, you haven't done anything. Colin will explain.

I have a fairly dry sense of humour.

Fair enough, was just checking i hadn't accidentally p*ssed you off by nailing your sister or something :O

FYP

LOL

thats as long as josh lasts

i was disapointed too

Me too :P

P.S. Brandon: I'm in IT, I work on their drawing management system.

I'll probably apply for powerlink if the pay is no good after this graduate program finish this year.

Wheelies FTW!

Maybe origins too. Hahaha.

what do they use? Is it their own system or a third party one? We use Aconex at work n it's not too bad. Some good features but most subbies are computer illiterate so it's wasted on them.

You're in a grad program? When did you finish uni?

bonus of doing a cadetship is I get to skip the graduate stage lol :(

10 hours give or take without complications to do it properly.

So give or take 900 - 1000.

Or half if I give you a a car with no motor to pull out, give or take.

Yea. Finished uni in 2006 and started the program in 2007. So this year will be the last and they'll handing out the contract sometime this week or next. :x

I don't actually work for them directly, I'm there as a contractor/consultant so I can't help you out with an in sorry. What kind of work do you do?

Its a 3rd party one, I actually work for the vendor so I won't go into details.

Nah I'm just saying I'll probably be apply for energy companies if it does happen. But my expectation arent high so chance of me applying for another job is low. I'm an electrical engineer.

Oh wait. T +5mins! Time to head home. Cya!

oi martin - i just signed into msn on the work computer and i have all theses conversations from you that i didnt receive lol!

i think my mac hates you cuz u dog it hahahah

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
